I just think this is nothing more than cannon fodder for Dr. Phil to get ratings
Yes--very clear--who ever signs up is going to be read the riot act. Ratings are all that count; righteous indignation from housewives will get them there.

Dr. Phil and car racing do not belong in the same sentence regardless of the topic. Alot of homemakers will just be sitting there going 'Those dangerous kids'. I say raise them better, give 'em all vettes, and track those kids driving skills hehe
Well perhaps you are not aware that Dr Phil is a pretty serious car guy. Sold a C4 Porsche at Jackson Barrett a few years ago and bought a C6 Z06 instead.

Hangs with Leno as well, so I think he is performance literate and knows where it is at. Street racing is giving us all a bad rep & if he can help I am all for it.

Really?! He can hang with Leno on the car front? I doubt it. However, it does sound like his head is in the right direction.
